CHEOPS and TESS view of the ultra-short period super-Earth TOI-561 b

J. A. Patel, J. A. Egger, T. G. Wilson +75

Ultra-short period planets (USPs) are a unique class of super-Earths with an orbital period of less than a day and hence subject to intense radiation from their host star. While mo…

Investigating the visible phase-curve variability of 55 Cnc e

E. A. Meier Valdés, B. M. Morris, B. -O. Demory +87

55 Cnc e is an ultra-short period super-Earth transiting a Sun-like star. Previous observations in the optical range detected a time-variable flux modulation that is phased with th…

Refined parameters of the HD 22946 planetary system and the true orbital period of planet d

Z. Garai, H. P. Osborn, D. Gandolfi +85

Multi-planet systems are important sources of information regarding the evolution of planets. However, the long-period planets in these systems often escape detection. HD 22946 is…

TOI-5678 b: A 48-day transiting Neptune-mass planet characterized with CHEOPS and HARPS

S. Ulmer-Moll, H. P. Osborn, A. Tuson +92

A large sample of long-period giant planets has been discovered thanks to long-term radial velocity surveys, but only a few dozen of these planets have a precise radius measurement…

A new dynamical modeling of the WASP-47 system with CHEOPS observations

V. Nascimbeni, L. Borsato, T. Zingales +80

Among the hundreds of known hot Jupiters (HJs), only five have been found to have companions on short-period orbits. Within this rare class of multiple planetary systems, the archi…

TOI-1055 b: Neptunian planet characterised with HARPS, TESS, and CHEOPS

A. Bonfanti, D. Gandolfi, J. A. Egger +89

TOI-1055 is a Sun-like star known to host a transiting Neptune-sized planet on a 17.5-day orbit (TOI-1055 b). Radial velocity (RV) analyses carried out by two independent groups us…

Glancing through the debris disk: Photometric analysis of DE Boo with CHEOPS

Á. Boldog, Gy. M. Szabó, L. Kriskovics +76

DE Boo is a unique system, with an edge-on view through the debris disk around the star. The disk, which is analogous to the Kuiper belt in the Solar System, was reported to extend…

A full transit of Lupi d and the search for an exomoon in its Hill sphere with CHEOPS

D. Ehrenreich, L. Delrez, B. Akinsanmi +90

The planetary system around the naked-eye star Lupi (HD 136352; TOI-2011) is composed of three exoplanets with masses of 4.7, 11.2, and 8.6 Earth masses. The TESS and CHEOPS…
